Rochelle's Pumpkin Cookies

Story:

Last week I sent out another one of those recipe exchange e-mails. I don't always do those... really. But I guess I was just in the mood that day. (Besides, I take the really easy way out and just send a link to this blog as "my recipe." ha!) Anyway, this is what my sister Rochelle writes back to me:


Hey Cokes,

I sent a recipe to [your friend], but I’m not forwarding to 20 of my friends. I just don’t do chain emails. ;-) Here’s the recipe… it’s yummy! Put it on your blog so I never lose it. ;-) I had to send it to Dale’s sister Sina recently, as she said she’s tried other Pumpkin Cookie recipes, but they’re never as good.

Love you!

-Ro


So... I haven't officially tried this recipe yet. And this is not showing any disrespect to the Pumpkin Cookies I have already posted on this blog. (I still love your pumpkin cookies, Kate!) But just because my sister asked me to, this recipe for "THE BEST PUMPKIN COOKIES EVER" is going here... just so Rochelle never loses it.
